CARL SAGAN’S BILLION…MEET JOHN WESLEY POWELL’S SUBLIME
There are many directions to gaze when trying to achieve that calming, peace-making humility.
To be in awe of nature and its patient strength..
And if you’re lucky, or better yet ~ paying attention..
You may….
Just for a moment..
Grasp its’ size..
And feel that foggy back-of-the-mind nagging that whispers to you at these times “you almost got it”
Or that hazed “Eureka!” vision that’s jusssst beyond your periphery…
That moment of being in the moment.
I understand those that climb Everests
Row Atlantic
Boston Run
Pack Grand Canyon Sublime
Travel starward..
Hug their child
Wave riders
River runners
and on
I understand those that Step-out to home’s front stoop and…
if for just a moment ~ Inhale the Imagery.
